Hosea 9:13 in Context — Hosea 9

11 La gloire d’Éphraïm s’envolera comme un oiseau: Plus de naissance, plus de grossesse, plus de conception.

12 S’ils élèvent leurs enfants, Je les en priverai avant qu’ils soient des hommes; Et malheur à eux, quand je les abandonnerai!

13 Éphraïm, aussi loin que portent mes regards du côté de Tyr, Est planté dans un lieu agréable; Mais Éphraïm mènera ses enfants vers celui qui les tuera.

14 Donne-leur, ô Éternel!… Que leur donneras-tu?… Donne-leur un sein qui avorte et des mamelles desséchées!

15 Toute leur méchanceté se montre à Guilgal; C’est là que je les ai pris en aversion. A cause de la malice de leurs œuvres, Je les chasserai de ma maison. Je ne les aimerai plus; Tous leurs chefs sont des rebelles.
